Exclusive: Up to 150 #US troops wounded in #Iran #war, two sources tell Reuters

As many as 150 US troops have been wounded in the Iran war, two sources familiar with the matter told Reuters.

Chancellor Friedrich #Merz said Tuesday that he shares many of the aims of the #US - #Israel campaign against #Iran, but “more questions arise with every day of war.”

“Above all we’re concerned that there is apparently no joint plan for how this #war can be brought quickly to a convincing end,” Merz said.

He stressed that “#Germany & #Europe have no interest in an endless war” or in Iran’s territorial integrity disintegrating.

...not be easy and could easily become a calamity.

Thanks to President #Trump’s restraint during his first term, #America has a golden opportunity to pull away from #MiddleEast quagmires for good.

We shouldn’t throw that opportunity away so that sone D.C. has-beens can feel tough by sending young #Americans to die yet again.

Just the earliest of the US strikes on #Iran cost the #UnitedStates $5.6 billion in munitions, #Pentagon estimates

The #US & #Israel now really have a friend in #Tehran.

In strikes #Mojtaba was wounded, while his father, wife and other family members were likely killed.

This new #Ayatollah guy is going to be super sympathetic to them!

They truly must have achieved their #war goal...

In case you haven't heard it, there is that old saying in #Iran:

"Kill somebody's family and (only) wife,
make a friend for life"

"Hearts and minds" eh?

Great, here come the sleeper cells. 🙄 Tell me again why Trump decided to start a war in the first place? Last I heard he was on the "affordability!" bandwagon. Instead we're staring down a 1973-style oil shock but with bonus terrorism!

I love the stunned white guy reaction 🤣

When asked about whether or not #Iran was worried about U.S. boots on the ground, #Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi responded in a way the anchor didn't expect.
